eddie glaude.going after jeffrey epstein. devastating to those who made the accusations as well. talk a bit about that. this in american culture broadly. the reporting done by the "miami herald" to resurface this story. to raise this to everyone's consciousness. to see the arrest of jeffrey epstein here a few weeks ago. >> it's first of all, tom is absolutely right. there's folks who are going to have to answer for how this happened. he was under suicide watch. he had tried something. so how could this happen, given that he was under close scrutiny. some folks are going to have to answer for that. that's the first thing. the second thing, is that it seems to me that we cannot allow his death or his suicide, to push this out of view. the women who have been subject to this kind of abuse demand or require their day, their day in court in some way. we have to figure out how that's going to happen. with whether or not his estate needs to be divided among them. i don't know, i'm not a lawyer. what i do

jonathan greenblatt, national director and ceo of the national defamation league, eddie glaude, princeton university professor, christian picciolini, founder of the group life after hate, and richard parker. his new article is entitled, "when hate came to el paso." we'll start with you. just jump into this conversation about this intersection of rhetoric, about the intersection of the president's language, the language in his twitter feed and the manipulation in the use of rhetoric, about the intersection of the president's language, the language in his twitter feed and the manipulation in the use of this language of an invasion as reported in the "new york times" tonight as part of his reelection strategy. >> well, i don't think you have to be some kind of scientist to draw a straight line between the president's rhetoric as it pertains to immigrations and the 60 million people in this country who are latinos. the vast majority of whom are citizens. and what happened here in el paso, which is my hometown, on saturday. the president used the word racism several times in his rally tonight.

shannon pet that pee, annette lopez from business insider, eddie glaude the chairman of the center ofbutors. shannon, you a brand new piece out looking at the backdrop to the conference taking place in southwest france, looking at what happened yesterday between the tweets, the president's attacks on the head of the fade, escalating the trade war with china to the comments he made as he walked to marine one at 11:00 eastern time to fly to france on the red eye flight. help us understand how that backdrop is a blanket folded over what's going to be taking place there, those conversations in france. >> reporter: right, president trump has definitely brought his trade war to europe. there's a lot of issues these leaders need to talk about, national security, the environment, iran, for example. the focus, because of this fixation trump has on his trade war with china will certainly be on trade. he has a lot of issues with europe as well. he runs the disk here of fighting a trade war on two fronts. he wants to talk to the french about an internet tax they have. he has threatened a wine tar

eddie glaude jr. nbc news correspondent stephanie gosk. and washington anchor for bbc world news america, katty kay. one sign that anyone could see something coming is if i saw something coming and i saw something coming. joe's captain obvious. if he saw this coming, anybody should have seen this coming. so mike, why didn't the bureau of prisons see this coming? why didn't the justice department see this coming? why didn't the white house see this coming? how did this happen? >> well, joe, if the official story right now is -- if the facility is understaffed we have known that it's been understaffed for quite some time there's really no clear answer on electronic monitoring. i don't think there was electronic monitoring in his cell. he was alone in a cell which is against doj department of justice policy which is a key question that has to be answered. the bottom line, joe, is that we -- the public, the american public is going to need answers as quickly as they can be provided to sort of put a blanke

tim miller, former rnc deputy communications director and eddie glaude professor and msnbc contributor. this is a state he narrowly lost as kristen pointed out in 2016. you were there. what is your assessment of what you saw and heard? >> a couple interesting things here. a lot of states it's the republican office holders or candidates who want to marry themselves to trump thinking it may be their best path to victory at least best path to the republican nomination. but trump is quite under water in terms of approval ratings in new hampshire. and he has been for quite sometime. while you understand while the campaign wants to say this is one state we can flip it was the narrowest loss they had in 2016. all the signs point to that will be very difficult. however, it was very important for the state's governor chris sununu, a republican, to appear alongside trump. he is much more popular than trump in the state and overall what was really fascinating to me was this was the first rally he held after el paso and after dayton. he has been signaling in the wake of that he might be open to sa

that's where we start with eddie glaude from american studies at princeton university, politics etd iter for the daily beast, sam stein is back, raul reyes -- should we confess that i practiced and still got it wrong? columnist for "usa today," who's from el paso, was there this weekend and joins us. former republican congressman now an independent, david jolly, former assistant director for counterintelligence at the fbi, frank figliuzzi is here, and with us today the piece we quoted, white house bureau chief for "the washington post," phil rucker. phil rucker, i will out myself. i emailed you last night and said i thought your reporting was some of the best and distressing of trump's presidency and i want to read what you wrote. this gets to the heart of the matter. the overlap of the killer's manifesto in donald trump's language. portions of the 2,300 word essay titled "the inconvenient truth" closely mirror rp's rhetoric as well as the language of the white nationalist moment, including the warning of the spanish invasion of texas. the author is so aligned with the president he decid

officer at moveon.org and chair of african-american studies at princeton universities, the poet eddie glaude and joining us in south carolina where biden is campaigning, msnbc correspondent garrett haake. garrett, let me hit you with the poll numbers first. we were here yesterday talking about ads and talking about it's being described by another pollster as an outlier that showed a much tighter race. those numbers have to be heartening, frankly, to every democrat running against donald trump but certainly a huge martin between joe biden and donald trump today. >> yeah, look, for joe biden's campaign, those numbers well outside the margin of error for donald trump. it underscores his central argument the idea he's the strongest and best-suited candidate to take on donald trump. but every democrat included in that survey can take some heart in the idea they all match up well against donald trump. the huge caveat is we're in august of the odd here. we can be talking about entirely different set of issues come november 2020. but one thing that won't change is we still will be talking about dona

eddie glaude, this is a big deal.ion california which has always been an afterthought, it's only mattered in the rare case when you had hillary clinton and barack obama and the race was still alive late into the season. now you have it coming up right after the first four early states and it's changing everyone's calibration about how to run for president. >> right, if you can get california, you come out of the early states at least first or second and you get california, can you wrap it up kind of early. it makes sense to me people are investing in california. kamala harris has to hold home court. i don't know what that will look like in its details. bernie sanders has to understand if he comes out of the early states and goes into california strong, he will catapult and be more than simply the person after biden. and elizabeth warren her momentum is fascinating to me. she's been engaged in that grunt work on the ground, building operations and interacting with people on a day-to-day basis with her plans. california

i want to get some insight into what is happening from eddie glaude, princeton university professor and david jolly republican congressman from florida in the past no longer affiliated with the republican party. look, it is easy to make jokes about a lot of this stuff especially greenland. is this from the onion and you realize it isn't actually but when you have something like the g7 saying we're not going to issue a joint statement. this is coming from macron, our ally, what does this say? >> it teaches the world if you anger enough allies eventually you don't have allys. we know he has continually insulted other world leaders going back to when he first elected on a phone call with the pm of australia. go down the line with our western european allies. the story around greenland we all kind of laughed and questioned the president's stability but one of the foreign policy conversations that was heard around the world was when the president mentioned bringing russia back into what would be the g8. that has serious geo political consequences. >> and not having any sense it was about cri

. >> by the way, eddie glaude, the anti anti-trump contingent has been in full force.e at peak anti antitrump, because they can't defend donald trump, so they will write op-eds about greenland or scowling about how donald trump's being called a racist, and he shouldn't be called a racist. i was, for some reason, i don't know why, maybe netflix recommended it t i went back to see chappell's first show which of course is where chappell was a klan. >> yeah, yeah. >> and he used every racist stereotype against black people and he in this skit, what, 12, 15 years ago, he used the same language, you know, go back home, they need to go back home where they came from. they sat there thinking this has been such a universally word used by racists and before that, fascists and still, neo fascists, that it's not even a close call, so we move from donald trump and then crowds chanting send they are back, to now the republican national committee saying of four congresswomen, this is not their country. very exclusionary. you know, the trump campaign, i mean. the trump campaign, not t
